Title
La vie domestique des officiers britanniques et canadiens résidant dans la maison Maillou au XIXe siècle : étude de la collection archéologique
Abstract
The author points out that the domestic life of British and French-Canadian military officers in nineteenth-century Quebec City has received minimal investigation in historical and archaeological studies. The archaeological collection of Maison Maillou, located at 17, rue Saint-Louis, allowed her to study the domestic life of these households from the objects that were used and discarded. The households in question are that of a British officer who occupied Maison Maillou at the beginning of the nineteenth century (ca. 1818-1823), and that of a French-Canadian officer named Théodore Juchereau Duchesnay who lived in the house at the end of the nineteenth century (ca. 1877-1896). The author notes that the study of the artefacts makes it possible to understand more about the domestic and family life of these two households and to draw conclusions about their social and economic status thanks to the assembly of ceramics found at the site.
